Hey there! Long time player, used to frequent the site some time ago, fell out of playing a couple of years ago, and am just now getting back into it.
I installed the Steam copy of SH3, did the resolution fix to make it work, modded it with GWX Gold and the merchant fleet mod, went through the Academy to brush up on the game again, then started a career.
On the first few patrols, I'm not seeing any ships. Got attacked by bombers twice (was able to dive and escaped damage twice), but didn't spot a single ship, friend or foe.
Is it common in the early stages of the war (1939) to not encounter anything on patrols? On both patrols to AN56 and AN84, I had plenty of fuel left after the 24 hours of patrolling and scoured the British coastline and couldn't find anything.
I never had this problem before when playing the game, but it's been a couple of years, so I thought I'd see if anyone thought it was odd, or maybe I'm just unlucky?
